Great location. Walkable to everywhere: parks, restaurants, bars, shopping etc. staff was friendly and helpful. Decor was upscale eclectic and had a nice vibe. We found parking just behind the hotel in a lot for just $11 for 24 hours. Valet was $50 but it was Valentines day. Comfortable beds. We will come back if we want a night away in downtown Mobile again.

Awesome service (minus the microwave)
The service was amazing! The hotel itself was beautiful. The staff was perfect also! Me and my girlfriend enjoyed our stay. Now the only thing that I will say that the rooms need are microwaves. We brought food back and didn’t have anywhere to heat up the food that was in the fridge. Other than that, it was great!

The staff at the Admiral was beyond kind and welcoming. The hotel itself was super eclectic in style and clean. We were given sparkling wine upon arrival and our room was perfectly clean. We dined at LeMoyne’s and the dinner/ambiance was top notch. It was our first wedding anniversary and the restaurant went as far as signing an anniversary card for us. The food was amazing and the service at both the hotel and restaurant was fantastic. Cannot wait to come back.

The makeovers on this hotel are very nice. My only complaint was the lack of vending machines or ability to purchase something to drink. Our flight got in late and we didn't want to walk several blocks to find a soda or bottled water.

otel! The staff was incredibly courteous and welcoming, but I must give special recognition to Katy at the front desk. She went above and beyond by offering me an exclusive tour of the recent renovations, showcasing the hotel’s unique areas and amenities. The artistry in my room was stunning—cohesive and thoughtfully selected to complement the space. I stayed in the Premier King Room, which was immaculately clean and wonderfully spacious. Even the complimentary coffee and water were presented with an attention to detail that is rare in hotels these days. The hotel’s design and service truly impressed me, and I can’t wait to enjoy a smoked old-fashioned at The Lit and The Living Room bar, which conveniently stays open until midnight daily. So far, my stay has exceeded all expectations. Highly recommend!

Ole fashion Service, and love of customer
Absolutely a fantastic stay! Elegant rooms, beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable king-size bed, hot, well-pressured shower head. The staff was friendly and helpful from the valet, front desk, and cleaning staff. No complaints! Well worth the trip. One of the best stays in my history. Top 3!!
